  • They won't be here until later this week. X_X

    Uh...I have no idea. I know Rocky Road has stuff in it, but I don't know what. XD
    Having not read the novels myself I can't be sure myself (I've only read the first 2, which Viz released before cancelling the series...my want for the movie is simply because I was pissed off at how the first series merged the Friagne and Lamies storylines into one). However, I've read reports online that indicates that the rather odd beginning for Shana III is because the anime cut out an earlier story arc that was dedicated to Dantalion, as well as some other details towards the end of season 2. In terms of Shana III, one thing that really stands out is the . I'm not sure what role they played in the novels, but in the anime, they randomly appear during the final battle and Margery even refers to them by name and there is no explanation whatsoever about why they are there. I can only assume that they were involved in more details that the anime cut out.

    Then there's a lot of back story for characters like Lamies, Samuel Demantius (a new character who is introduced early on) and Sale (a Flame Haze who shows up half way through the series) that is only briefly touched upon that I've had to found out about by reading posts online. It's annoying to be honest.
    Medaka Box...swear I've heard that name recently. Has there been a recent anime adaptation? I'll have to give it a look tomorrow (is around midnight atm xD).

    To be honest, I think one of the biggest flaws with Shakugan no Shana III -FINAL- was that it's very clear that JC Staff has cut a fair bit of story out that was in the light novels. Then, instead of removing references to those events from the continuity, they instead reference them and even have characters appear and having existing characters be familiar with them, despite it being their first appearance in the anime 9.9
    So what is it then?

    I might need something to fill the gap now that Shakugan no Shana is over...
